Luke: it might be a body part! Jessica: Teddy, it's blood! Just your typical Advent calendar conversation. Hilarious! LOVE your Vlogmas posts. Been watching for many years. 😊🎄
Question for the unnamed question portion! I have been watching Vlogmas with you guys for 10 years! I’ve always remembered all the unique advent calendars you all have done. Do you guys have any favorite advent calendars you’ve done in the past? AND if you could create any advent calendar in the world what it contain?
Mom’s going through this. It’s like her sixth time making a boy. Omg!!!😂😂😂. Great one, Jacob! And “let’s gather around the boy”. lol! Y’all crack me up!
as someone who's been a stage manager for a kids theatre program while it is a lot to handle it's soo much fun bc you get to help the kids shine doing something you yourself love to do. you're one of the people who is encouraging such an awesome thing that sometimes isn't so popular. I had a kid when I was in charge of my church theatre program tell me that people on her softball team made fun of her bc she did stage and I told her that they're just jealous that they themselves don't have the courage to do what she was doing. keep up the awesome work bailey.
You know you are a mom of a bunch of kids stuck in a hotel room and decide to try to read “a thousand years of solitude” ! Your little boys share super well and all are so kind to each other. The little boys shared slime and were so gentle and stirred without making an explosive mess which was amazing to watch. Also the moment Christopher offered Bailey another piece of trail mix to change the wasabi pea taste was just so sweet. I love the kindness and gentleness snd how much intense individual support each child gets despite being in a big family. Each of them have their own personalities and interests and it’s super cool to see. I love seeing you teach Teddy and Luke and having impromptu Itslian language lessons before dinner. Bailey is so lovey also and seems to be flourishing in her educational pursuits. She comes off as a very gifted kid and Jacob too. He seems always thirsty for creative pursuits. I really enjoyed Bailey’s attitude about trying something unfamiliar and a little scary but taking it on wholeheartedly. You guys are doing an amazing job. It’s kinda nice to see a family who are so kind and gentle with each other and all excited to learn and evolve as humans. Hope your home is accessible for you very soon and insurance covers all the costs of eating out and hotels etc. hang in there.
Jessica and Christopher, question for the both of you! I know you are high school sweet hearts, at what age did you decide that a big family was the path for y’all, and how does it differ from your expectations at that time?
8:47 I can't work out this one, I keep thinking the answers are mixed up, but then one sort of makes sense. I am glad it's your family doing it though because of all the actually funny alternative better jokes as you bounce ideas off one another
I love when people from California say “been to snow” like it’s a location. It’s seen snow or been to a place with snow. Colleen always says that too and it always makes me giggle.
Maybe you’re already planning something like this, but maybe you could have the kids make cards or something for the firefighters in your area. Would be a cool way to show your appreciation for their hard work. I’m sure it would make their day ❤️
Where I live in Texas it doesn’t snow often but it did snow a lot in the last recent years due to ice/snow storms knocking our power out for weeks at a time!! It’s currently 50 degrees Fahrenheit/10 degrees Celsius.
I have a question for Bailey also state again. I think this segment should be called bantering with the Ballingers Bailey. You said you wanted to see a show for Xmas. What show!?
We live in Canada, in Nova Scotia. We have had some snow the last few days, which it has been a long time since we had it snow this much b4 Christmas. It isn't much but still. We do Celsius. About -1 to about 4 lately You need to check out NS in the fall. We are one of the most beautiful places in fall.
question for bailey, jacob and christopher 😊 have you guys ever had writers block/artists block and what did you do to surpass that and gain inspiration? 🎨✍🏼
I noticed that Jacob has a stye on the lid of his eye. If you rub a gold ring or anything that is gold, it will help it to heal quickly. There are elements in the gold that will help.
jess, the cross books are so good! and there are SO MANY!! my fave was violets are blue which was the second. the tv version is rhe 1st book but it gets so much better.i only made it half way through the prime and stopped because i felt like it was taking away from my reading experience i guess kinda lol hard to explain! and its been about 30 years.
So your typical winterday is at a temperature that we put on shorts again and leave our jacket at home. Because it's nice and warm. The beginning of summer. 🤭
Here’s one for Christopher: I’m currently watching a PBS looks like him. I was today years old when I realized that the actor played Neville Longbottom in Harry Potter! So, the question is, has anyone ever pointed out the similarity before?
I wish we had 19 - 21 degrees C in Winter here We typically get 3 - 10 degrees C in the winter (can get as low as -5) And our summer is typically 15 - 25 Degrees C (can get as hot as 30 if we get a big heat weave)
Thank you for answering my question! I got so excited when I heard my username! 🤩 I also have had Stage Managing experience, its a great experience and Into The Woods is one of my favorite shows too! My first college show I performed in was Into The Woods 😊❤
can you teach us how to make the pavlova you make every year? and how to keep it fresh? I've looked up other recipes in the past and when I stored them in the fridge it tastes bad. But if there are leftovers, should the fruit go into the fridge? Sorry for all the questions lol
Hi ballinger family! I have a question for Jessica! I have been watching you guys for so many years and I have to say Jessica has always been so calm and happy during labor and delivery, I am currently 8 months pregnant. Do you have any advice for me on labor and delivery? That’s the only part I have been nervous about
In the spirit of Whatchu talking about Willis? Name it: What you askin!?! Or, Who you askin!?! So every question has to be directed to whoever is being asked the question. Who you Askin?!? Rue: what’s your favorite smell? Rue: which one of your owners require the most watching over? Let’s Talk About it. (
19 degrees c is actually warm for where I live in Canada lol it’s about -5 Celsius today which is about 25 degrees Fahrenheit, and that’s not even that cold
I am doing a program that is Early childhood education, it is the children's first year of preschool and we have children who do what Luke did on his worksheet. We are high schoolers and we come up with the lesson plans and our teachers make sure it is good for the kids. Also, I have a brother named Luke.
I got my mom the newest Cross book for Christmas! I enjoyed the movies a lot! This new series is extremely captivating, but there’s a disconnect between the seriousness of Cross’s life and ridiculous Draco Malfoy guy.
I loved the science with Teddy and Luke! Question! What is everyone’s fave book atm? I’d love to know what the littles love aswell as the older kids / chis / Jessica Wow that Bailey is reading acotar it’s quite an adult book!
Chris, you know the bigger those boys get the more salsa they will eat. Soon you won't get any salsa at all. Imagine the Ballinger boys all teens and young men!
I read all the Alex Cross series, I'm a very big fan. If you know the movies Kiss The Girl and Along Came a Spider that have Morgan Freeman as Alex Cross. Those are Book one and two.
Hello all me and hubby are loving vlogmas. Two questions as there are two of us 😊 what are your favourite animals and if you could travel anywhere in the world where would it be, these are for each of you. Blessings from our family to yours ❤
Parker: "it tastes good!"
Duncan: "it always does, bro" Duncan kills me!! 😂
To have watched Duncan's birth to now hearing him read is so sweet! It's such a gift to get to watch your precious family grow 💕
I haven’t see your family in forever you all grown so much ❤. I remember when Parker was 2 years old. I do love this family
I teach 2nd grade and I was so happy to hear Duncan reading that little blurb on his advent calendar! Such a good reader, Duncan!
That science advent calendar is super cool! What a great way to teach young children about human anatomy. Today's lesson, blood!
"Its 19 temperature" 🤣
Luke: it might be a body part! Jessica: Teddy, it's blood! Just your typical Advent calendar conversation. Hilarious! LOVE your Vlogmas posts. Been watching for many years. 😊🎄
came here to say the same thing 🤣🤣
Question for the unnamed question portion! I have been watching Vlogmas with you guys for 10 years! I’ve always remembered all the unique advent calendars you all have done. Do you guys have any favorite advent calendars you’ve done in the past? AND if you could create any advent calendar in the world what it contain?
So funny how litlle teddy picked out that calender out of all!
Mom’s going through this. It’s like her sixth time making a boy. Omg!!!😂😂😂. Great one, Jacob! And “let’s gather around the boy”. lol! Y’all crack me up!
Question for Christopher and Jessica: are there any baby names you love if you were to have another baby or if one of the boys had been a girl?
You guys are great! Including all the children in the videos. The two youngest are adorable! Good luck with the weather out there 🙏🏼😃
as someone who's been a stage manager for a kids theatre program while it is a lot to handle it's soo much fun bc you get to help the kids shine doing something you yourself love to do. you're one of the people who is encouraging such an awesome thing that sometimes isn't so popular.

Jacob’s jokes are hilariously bad, BOY? was the gift that kept on giving, but Teddy’s blood slime won for most bizarre 😂
You know you are a mom of a bunch of kids stuck in a hotel room and decide to try to read “a thousand years of solitude” !
Your little boys share super well and all are so kind to each other. The little boys shared slime and were so gentle and stirred without making an explosive mess which was amazing to watch.

For the question segment I think you should call it ask a ballinger so everyone's included
Jessica and Christopher, question for the both of you! I know you are high school sweet hearts, at what age did you decide that a big family was the path for y’all, and how does it differ from your expectations at that time?
love this adorable family
As someone from Pennsylvania ... Duncan wouldn't really want snow all the time its 19 actual degrees pa!!
Are you in northwestern PA? The snow here is CRAZY
I love the end of the vlog getting to know you guys more through questions!! ❤❤
Any news on Bailey getting her license and then that would also free up you guys with some extra time
Question for Christopher...do u plan on continuing Gifted Guitars? I really enjoyed that channel and seeing ur creations. 😊
I have a feeling that Jacobs joke book was translated from a different language, and they didn't do a good job. Or it was written by AI.
Question for Bailey and Jacob- Have they ever fought? they seem to get along so well!
HOPE U GUYS GET TO 3M!!!
Hearing you describe California beaches.. 72 in December😮
Have you been to the Oregon Coast?🥶
8:47 I can't work out this one, I keep thinking the answers are mixed up, but then one sort of makes sense. I am glad it's your family doing it though because of all the actually funny alternative better jokes as you bounce ideas off one another
I love when people from California say “been to snow” like it’s a location. It’s seen snow or been to a place with snow. Colleen always says that too and it always makes me giggle.
Congratulations Jessica
Thanks for Day 5 of Vlogmas! I never missed this one!
Luke was almost right. 57 fahrenheit is about 13 celcius 😂❤❤
Seems like Jacob and Luke have a special bond
Duncan with the BRO! 😂😂😂😂😂
Jacob! As much as the Dad jokes are sooo bad they're good,, I'm missing watching you make Lego-in- the- bag- advent this year!
Maybe you’re already planning something like this, but maybe you could have the kids make cards or something for the firefighters in your area. Would be a cool way to show your appreciation for their hard work. I’m sure it would make their day ❤️
Where I live in Texas it doesn’t snow often but it did snow a lot in the last recent years due to ice/snow storms knocking our power out for weeks at a time!! It’s currently 50 degrees Fahrenheit/10 degrees Celsius.
100 years of solitude is my absolute favourite book! Cant wait for u to read it Jessica ❤️
I pooped my pants thinking I missed some secret pregnancy

Question for Roux: Can you sit? Shake? Good girl!
Afternoon everybody; I hope you have a very blessed happy holidays, coming up soon.
I have a question for Bailey also state again. I think this segment should be called bantering with the Ballingers
Bailey. You said you wanted to see a show for Xmas. What show!?
Didn't she already say The Cursed Child yesterday?
I have a two part question! How do you stay intentional with each other as a family? And what are some of your favorite traditions?
Hope you have a great Christmas mate 😎
Question for Parker is competing in the Olympics the ultimate dream
We live in Canada, in Nova Scotia. We have had some snow the last few days, which it has been a long time since we had it snow this much b4 Christmas. It isn't much but still. We do Celsius. About -1 to about 4 lately
You need to check out NS in the fall. We are one of the most beautiful places in fall.

7:11 Jessica's answer was better 😂
This question asks you: Are you thinking of going to another country?
My recommendations: Italy, Turkey and England
Psychologist here, no kids yet but hopefully in the future! Always admiring your parenting skill. The way you listen and give attention is inspiring.
So your typical winterday is at a temperature that we put on shorts again and leave our jacket at home. Because it's nice and warm. The beginning of summer. 🤭
Here’s one for Christopher: I’m currently watching a PBS looks like him. I was today years old when I realized that the actor played Neville Longbottom in Harry Potter! So, the question is, has anyone ever pointed out the similarity before?
Are the older kids interested in dating yet? Thanks love you guys!!
1:50 Yes, well done Luke!
9:04 😮Teddy bear, cutie, that is not such a good idea! Remember where Rue has been!
I wish we had 19 - 21 degrees C in Winter here
We typically get 3 - 10 degrees C in the winter (can get as low as -5)
And our summer is typically 15 - 25 Degrees C (can get as hot as 30 if we get a big heat weave)
I'm 55 and from San Jose and have never been in snow.
Thank you for answering my question! I got so excited when I heard my username! 🤩

Hi ballinger family! I have a question for Jessica! I have been watching you guys for so many years and I have to say Jessica has always been so calm and happy during labor and delivery, I am currently 8 months pregnant. Do you have any advice for me on labor and delivery? That’s the only part I have been nervous about
Bailey and Jessica, have you read or heard of the book Like Water For Chocolate? It was one of my favorites from high school!
I love your shirt today Duncan!
In the spirit of Whatchu talking about Willis?
Name it: What you askin!?!
Or, Who you askin!?!
So every question has to be directed to whoever is being asked the question.
Who you Askin?!?
Rue: what’s your favorite smell?
Rue: which one of your owners require the most watching over?
Let’s Talk About it. (
What class do they take? From where do they di their schooling online?? You always have a fun advent calender...
Lots of snow here is Utah, Mr. Duncan!!
"It's a little slobbery" I really related to (I have a 2 year old)
I live in the same kind of conditions in Phoenix. I get no snow and pretty mild weather and temperaturer.
19 degrees c is actually warm for where I live in Canada lol it’s about -5 Celsius today which is about 25 degrees Fahrenheit, and that’s not even that cold
I am doing a program that is Early childhood education, it is the children's first year of preschool and we have children who do what Luke did on his worksheet. We are high schoolers and we come up with the lesson plans and our teachers make sure it is good for the kids. Also, I have a brother named Luke.
I need to know this music song you all were singing, name suggestion Ballinger answers
Where I live winter can get to single digits and summer can get to 40•c
Love the Dad joke book. So cringe!
Brat Productions should give the Ballinger children their own series.
I noticed something while you guys sing the vlogmas song: Does Duncan say vlognas? Just curious because it doesn't look like he says vlogmas❤😊
I got my mom the newest Cross book for Christmas! I enjoyed the movies a lot! This new series is extremely captivating, but there’s a disconnect between the seriousness of Cross’s life and ridiculous Draco Malfoy guy.
I loved the science with Teddy and Luke!
Question! What is everyone’s fave book atm? I’d love to know what the littles love aswell as the older kids / chis / Jessica
Wow that Bailey is reading acotar it’s quite an adult book!
Chris, you know the bigger those boys get the more salsa they will eat. Soon you won't get any salsa at all. Imagine the Ballinger boys all teens and young men!
Christopher, are you coming back to your guitar channel?
Duncan come to the UK some of us have snow at the minute. It is 3°c today, which is 37.4°f. It is going to be colder still.
I read all the Alex Cross series, I'm a very big fan. If you know the movies Kiss The Girl and Along Came a Spider that have Morgan Freeman as Alex Cross. Those are Book one and two.
Yes, most of the world uses Celsius only handful of countries use Fahrenheit 😂
To peddle its resume = to pad its resume 😀
Bailey is a star. Her primary job should be ruling the stage rather than managing it.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
4:35 this is a pretty one 😍
Hope you have a great evening mate 😎
Again, that joke book's gotta be written by AI, I swear 😅
Question: How many animals do y'all currently have?
Hello all me and hubby are loving vlogmas. Two questions as there are two of us 😊 what are your favourite animals and if you could travel anywhere in the world where would it be, these are for each of you. Blessings from our family to yours ❤
question for jacob, any new art projects?
🎉
Jacob, what is your dream career?
What bout naming it “Inquirers would like to know”.
Sorry I wasn’t able to watch the last couple of Vlogs. I bet you probably mentioned this then but what is it you actually need a name for?
